Frank and Rich sit down with Daren Alexander, CEO of A-C Electric Company — the powerhouse family business his grandfather founded over 80 years ago in California's Central Valley. Daren took the reins after his father (who took over after his father), but here's the twist: Daren admits he doesn't know a thing about being an electrician. His real expertise? Building world-class teams that power projects across the state.

We dive into the company's rich history, how Daren worked outside the family business to truly appreciate and love it, and his laser focus on culture: "We’ve built a culture that values teamwork, innovation, and personal growth—where hard work is recognized, ideas are encouraged, and every team member plays a vital role in our success."

Proof? In January, Daren threw an unforgettable party at Cal Coast Beer Co. — shutting down the entire brewery for 400 employees, complete with live music from Yachty by Nature. It wasn't just a celebration; it was a statement about putting people first.

If you're a business leader, family company owner, or anyone who believes culture > everything else, this episode is packed with real talk on leadership, legacy, and why teams are the true power source.
